<strong>Mazamas</strong> mission is to<br />

provide a comprehensive<br />

climbing program with<br />

allied activities that<br />

enhance and protect the<br />

participants and the<br />

environment.<br />

Capital Campaign News<br />

When we first moved to the area we lived in an<br />

apartment that had a beautiful view of Mt. Hood. We<br />

often said to each other that some day we should climb<br />

it. Being from the Midwest, our experience with mountains<br />

was nil. However, we did have plenty of experience<br />

with snow and cold weather. A friend of ours, who<br />

had just completed the BCEP and had climbed Mt.<br />

Hood, suggested we sign up for it the next year. That<br />

was 15 years ago. We did and have been <strong>Mazamas</strong> ever<br />

since.<br />

When we heard that a new home for the <strong>Mazamas</strong><br />

was needed, we didn’t hesitate to contribute. The<br />

<strong>Mazamas</strong> have been like a family to us over the years.<br />

They have provided us a sense of community. We have<br />

attended many classes and other functions at the present<br />

business office. It has always felt like coming<br />

home. It has been, to paraphrase from the old sitcom<br />

Cheers, a place “… where everyone knows your<br />

name.” We want that sense of community to be available<br />

to future generations of climbers. We hope our<br />

contribution will make the Mazama Mountaineering<br />

Center a reality.<br />

Wildflower Identification Hike<br />

What’s the name of that little blue flower? Why is it growing<br />

on this slope and not in the valley below? That white one<br />

looks like what I have growing in my garden. Are they related?<br />

Join us on a free wildflower identification and appreciation<br />

hike Sat., April 30. Amateur botanist Barry Maletzky<br />

will lead us on an easily-paced hike up Dog Mountain at the<br />

height of the flower season. We will hike up the steeper west<br />

side and then loop down the east trail, of course enjoying<br />

many stops to inspect the flora and learn about the names of<br />

the plants, how they received their names, their relationships<br />

to other plants in our mountains and to familiar plants in<br />

our gardens back home. Meet at 8:30 a.m. at Gateway or<br />

9:45 a.m. at the Dog Mountain Trailhead. Forest Service<br />

MAZAMAS EXECUTIVE COUNCIL SPECIAL MEETING<br />

February 25, 2005<br />

Attending: Wendy Carlton, Sam Nebel, Marty Hanson, Keith<br />

Dubanevich, Terri Cummings, Eugene Lewins, Gary Beck, Lori Freeman,<br />

Harold Crawford, Peggie Schwarz.<br />

Wendy Carlton called the meeting to order at 12:05 p.m. The<br />

meeting was adjourned just after 1 p.m. The purpose of the meeting<br />

was to discuss some recent developments regarding the Capital<br />

Campaign<br />

Keith Dubanevich reported that he and co-chair Eugene Lewins<br />

were recommending that the <strong>Mazamas</strong> retain experts in fundraising.<br />

Keith outlined the success of the campaign so far and the need to develop<br />

a more coordinated and professional approach to fundraising. In<br />

the prior few weeks, Eugene, Keith and Peggie Schwarz have met with<br />

and interviewed two candidates for the position. A written proposal<br />

was obtained from Smith & Co.<br />

After extensive discussion and debate it was moved that Council<br />

approve the request to retain Smith & Co. subject to the following: 1)<br />

incorporation into the contract a requirement of at least quarterly performance<br />

evaluations by the co-chairs of the campaign, Peggie and<br />

Wendy Carlton; 2) that the terms of the contract be acceptable to the<br />

co-chairs of the campaign and the executive members of Council and<br />

include a requirement of detailed billing; and 3) that acceptable references<br />

be obtained. The motion was seconded, and there was a unanimous<br />

vote to approve the motion.<br />

Old-Timers Activities<br />

25 years or more of Mazama membership<br />

Wednesday, April 27. We’ll walk along the Columbia enjoying<br />

the awesome views up and down the river and the great variety<br />

of birds that are visible and active at this time of year. There will<br />

be lots of wildflowers to see, too. It is fun to try to identify both<br />

birds and flowers, so bring your binoculars and reference books.<br />

We’ll have lunch in a cozy restaurant in Washougal after the<br />

hike and then visit the Pendleton Mills Outlet Store in search of<br />

fabulous clothing bargains.<br />

Leader: Flora Huber (503) 658-5710. Meet for carpooling at<br />

10 a.m. at the northwest corner of the big K-Mart parking lot at<br />

N.E. 122nd and Sandy Blvd. in Portland.<br />

Thursday, May 26. Meet in the banquet room of J.J. North’s<br />

Grand Buffet at N.E. 105th and Halsey at 11:30 a.m. It’s just a<br />

few blocks east of the Gateway MAX station. Bring your<br />

friends, they are always welcome!<br />

There is going to be a special program you won’t want to<br />

miss! Betty Parker will re-live for us a wonderful <strong>Mazamas</strong> outing<br />

that went to Nepal in 1979. It was led by Bob Pierce who<br />

has been a member since 1956. Betty was part of the outing and<br />

took beautiful slide pictures as they trekked the Annapurna massif<br />

and crossed over 17,771-foot-high Thorung La. They even<br />

detoured from New Delhi to Agra in India to see the Taj Mahal.<br />

Betty is no stranger to high peaks, since joining the <strong>Mazamas</strong> in<br />

1949, she has received the 16 Major NW Peaks climbing award.<br />

For directions to the restaurant or information, call (503) 254-<br />

9465 or (503) 293-6304.<br />

We are saddened to report that Helen Wirtanen passed away<br />

March 10 in her home at Calaroga Terrace. A member since<br />

1952, she had many friends and will be greatly missed.<br />

President’s Corner<br />

Wendy Carlton<br />

‘<strong>Mazamas</strong>’ Founding Principals’<br />

In 1966, the Long Range Planning Committee (yes, they had one<br />

then too!) established the Philosophy Subcommittee and directed the<br />

committee to review the <strong>Mazamas</strong> to make sure the 72-year-old organization<br />

had remained true to its founding principles. The subcommittee<br />

concluded that the founding principles had been held to: mountain<br />

climbing and directly related activities were the main focus of the<br />

<strong>Mazamas</strong> when founded in 1894, and continued to be the driving<br />

principle in 1966.<br />

The committee also noted that the <strong>Mazamas</strong> had experienced gradual<br />

but enduring growth. I quote from the report “Growth that might<br />

be compared to that of a sequoia that has not reached ultimate maturity.<br />

The guiding light to the organization’s exisitence and its ability to<br />

attract devoted members must be more than just the climbing of<br />

mountains. Perhaps it is mountaineering fellowship that is the key? Is<br />

not fellowship then a potent part of the Mazama philosophy — fellowship<br />

activated by a common ideal?”<br />

Mountain climbing, related activities, and fellowship — rich principles<br />

indeed!<br />

More than 111 years later we are still like the sequoia — strong,<br />

deeply rooted, growing slowly, continuing to thrive and flourish —<br />

continuing to gain members through a shared set of principles, interests<br />

and goals. We climb mountains, we hike, we support conservation<br />

and research projects, we conduct unique educational programs, we<br />

train leaders, we protect our history, we laugh together, and we celebrate<br />

together. We support each other’s successes and mourn each<br />

other’s losses. Is this not true fellowship?<br />

After reading the 1966 report I dug out my copy of our current<br />

strategic plan and was delighted to find that many of the founding<br />

ideals and principles are repeated in our current strategic plan. We have<br />

held to the ideals that served the <strong>Mazamas</strong> so well for the first 70 years,<br />

we have continued to grow and thrive in the last 50 years, and as we<br />

make decisions about our programs and our goals, we will always go<br />

back to that map, to that set of principles that have proved their value<br />

and their enduring strength. If we do this, I know that in a hundred<br />

years the <strong>Mazamas</strong>’ president will write an another article, similar to<br />

this one, celebrating the rich legacy and history of the <strong>Mazamas</strong>.<br />

New Reserve Collection at the Mazama<br />

Library – Climbing Guidebooks<br />

With the arrival of the summer climb schedule, many of us are starting<br />

to research routes for our upcoming adventures. Now, the frustration<br />

of stopping by the library for the one key route description or<br />

photo you need and finding it’s been checked out is (mostly) a thing of<br />

the past. The Mazama Library now has a reserve collection of the most<br />

popular guidebooks that will always be available. The books will be on<br />

the main floor (not in the library), so just ask any staff member if you<br />

need one. Again, these books do not circulate, so please keep them here<br />

so we all can use them. (We also have circulating copies of many of<br />

these titles, so if you want to check one you usually can.)<br />

We currently have these titles available:<br />

• Cascade Alpine Guide Volume 1,2 and 3, by Fred Beckey<br />

• Oregon High, by Jeff Thomas<br />

• Climbing Washington’s Mountains, by Jeff Smoot<br />

• Selected Climbs in the North Cascades Volume 1 and 2, by<br />

Nelson and Potterfield<br />

• 75 Scrambles in Oregon, by (our own) Barbara Bond<br />

• 75 Scrambles in Washington, by Peggy Goldman<br />

• Washington’s Highest Mountains, by Peggy Goldman<br />

• A Climber’s Guide to the Olympic Mountains, by Olympic<br />

Mountain Rescue<br />

• A Climber’s Guide to Oregon, by Nick Dodge.<br />

Access Committee<br />

The Access Committee needs you! Please join me in making the<br />

Access Committee active once more. We have a number of issues<br />

that need our attention. One topic of interest to many members is<br />

the continuing effort to preserve the Madrone Wall area. On<br />

March 15 the Clackamas County Board of Commisioners held a<br />

disposition meeting on the “Hardscrabble Quarry” — as they call<br />

the area. The 45-acre area also known as the Madrone Wall,<br />

which is just east of Carver, is home to a distinctive cliff face and<br />

its namesake trees. Additionally the area is a unique wildlife and<br />

plant habitat. The <strong>Mazamas</strong> Access Committee is working with<br />

local nonprofits to insure that our interests are being represented<br />

as the commissioners consider all the angles while deliberating.<br />

Watch for further updates on the Madrone Wall.<br />

The annual Adopt-a-Crag cleanup at Rocky Butte will be held<br />

in the coming months. Coordinated with The Access Fund, this is<br />

a great way to give a little back to an area of such educational and<br />

recreational importance to the <strong>Mazamas</strong>. These are just a fraction<br />

of the important issues the Access Committee is working on.<br />

For more information on Access, or to join — please contact<br />

me. I look forward to the challenges of the upcoming year as we<br />

work to be strong advocates for our outdoor pursuits. Send me<br />

e-mail at: access@mazamas.org.<br />

Thank you,<br />

Barbara I. Bond, <strong>Mazamas</strong> Access Committee chair<br />

<strong>Mazamas</strong> Aid Madrone Wall Preservation<br />

Thank you, <strong>Mazamas</strong>, for your outstanding recent support including<br />

a $2000 grant from the Executive Council that was drawn partially<br />

from the Becker Fund. This was a big shot in the arm and it<br />

will help the Madrone Wall Preservation Committee (MWPC)<br />

continue our work toward preventing the site from being<br />

destroyed as a quarry or housing development, and re-establishing<br />

recreational access including rock climbing and establishing<br />

permanent protective status as a park or open space.<br />

On March 15, a study session was held in Clackamas<br />

County between Clackamas County Commissioners and<br />

County Park managers. Several interested community representatives<br />

and conservation activists attended this session<br />

including fellow <strong>Mazamas</strong> Barbara Bond, chair of the Access<br />

Committee; Joan Zuber, member of the Conservation Committee<br />

(and vice chair of South Clackamas Community Planning Organization-CPO);<br />

Kellie Rice, regional coordinator, western Oregon, The<br />

Access Fund; and me. The session outcome directed the County Parks<br />

Department and its citizen-led Parks Advisory Board (PAB) to conduct<br />

meetings with community organizations and other interested parties<br />

over this coming spring and summer. By late October, the<br />

PAB will make a recommendation for the future use of this<br />

publicly-owned property to the commissioners. The commissioners<br />

will evaluate the recommendation and then make<br />

decisions about the future of the Madrone Wall. We saw<br />

encouraging signs and have guarded optimism that the site<br />

could receive protective park status and once again be open<br />

to future outdoor recreation.<br />

Outstanding community momentum is developing to support<br />

preservation of this amazing civic treasure, especially in<br />

light of the increasing pressures of nearby urbanization in the<br />

newly incorporated city of Damascus. In the past three<br />

months, the MWPC has presented to and extensively discussed the<br />

SIGNING UP FOR A CLIMB<br />

Sign-up for a climb is by applying directly to the climb leader. “A,” “B”<br />

and “C” grade sign-up is by mail only, using an “Application for Climb”<br />

card (see below). “B” and “C” climb applicants should list recent climbing<br />

experience in spaces provided.<br />

“D” and “E” grade sign-up is by telephone with individual climb leaders.<br />

If accepted, most “D” and “E” leaders will then require an “Application<br />

for Climb” card. If telephone contact with leaders is not possible,<br />

applicants may send letters including thorough listings of experience, formal<br />

instruction, etc. with the climb card. Climb leaders’ addresses and<br />

telephone numbers are on page 10 of the schedule.<br />

To apply, fill out the card and mail in an envelope to the climb leader.<br />

(DO NOT return it to <strong>Mazamas</strong>). Make sure the return postcard portion<br />

of the card has proper postage affixed along with YOUR address.<br />

ADVANCE SIGN-UP PERIOD<br />

In order to give each applicant the same time frame in which to apply for<br />

climbs, applications may not be mailed to leaders prior to April 15.<br />

Applications mailed prior to that date will either be refused or the applicant<br />

placed on an alternate list.<br />

MULTIPLE APPLICATIONS FOR THE SAME ROUTE<br />

During the advance sign-up period, applicants may apply for only<br />

one climb of the same grade on each peak chosen. Applicants<br />

applying for more than one climb of the same grade on the same<br />

peak either will not be accepted or become an alternate on climbs<br />

of that peak after the earliest climb applied for, whether or not<br />

accepted on the earlier climb.<br />

CLIMB APPLICATION CARDS<br />

“Application for Climb” cards are sold at <strong>Mazamas</strong> business office, by<br />

mail or by telephone using a credit card. Cost of the card constitutes the<br />

climb fee. Member Cards: $15.00; Nonmember Cards: $25.00. To order<br />

cards by mail:<br />

Mail check or money order for total amount to <strong>Mazamas</strong>, 909 NW 19th<br />

Avenue, Portland, OR 97209.<br />

CANCELLATIONS AND REFUNDS<br />

If unable to participate on a climb after having been accepted, notify the<br />

climb leader immediately. “No shows” and those who cancel at the last<br />

moment deprive others of the opportunity to climb. IF YOU CANCEL<br />

AFTER HAVING BEEN ACCEPTED, YOUR CLIMB FEE IS NOT<br />

REFUNDABLE. If the climb is canceled or does not leave the trailhead,<br />

climb fees are refunded.<br />

CLIMB PROSPECTUS<br />

A prospectus is mailed to each party member by the climb leader<br />

about two weeks prior to the climb. It will contain such information<br />

as names/addresses of party members, equipment required, description<br />

of the route, experience required, travel instructions, meeting<br />

place, etc.<br />

TRANSPORTATION<br />

Transportation to and from the mountain is the responsibility of individual<br />

party members. Leaders will include a list of party members as an<br />

aid to arranging car pooling.<br />

CLIMB REGULATIONS<br />

In case of accident, illness, or other incapacity, a climber must pay for<br />

his/her own medical and/or evacuation expenses, whether or not he/she<br />

has specifically authorized them. Note that all Mazama members have<br />

rescue insurance.<br />

Pets, firearms, alcoholic beverages and radios (other than ham radio<br />

transmitters or weather radios) are not permitted on climbs or in base<br />

camps. No one will be permitted on the climb who has taken or used<br />

substances (including medication) which impair performance or judgment.<br />

Climbers 17 years of age or under must furnish the climb leader with<br />

a written parental or guardian permission slip. Climbers 14 years of<br />

age or under must be accompanied on the climb by an adult responsible<br />

for them, who shall be required to remain with them for the entirety<br />

of the climb or descend with them. Neither the leader nor the assistant<br />

leader of any climb shall be the responsible adult for a climber 14<br />

years of age or younger. If the “responsible adult” descends, all<br />

climbers for whom he/she is responsible shall be required to descend<br />

as well.<br />

contact leader for further details.<br />

It is time to recruit more volunteers to participate in the<br />

Wilderness Steward Program! The <strong>Mazamas</strong> are entering the<br />

sixth season of our partnership with the US Forest Service to<br />

promote this great program. Rangers Mary Ellen Fitzgerald<br />

and Sue Brun will train us in Leave No Trace principles. We<br />

will then be well equipped to hike into the Mt. Hood, Salmon-<br />

Huckleberry and the Hatfield wildernesses to talk to campers<br />

and hikers about wilderness ethics and LNT practices. If you<br />

can’t hike or backpack there are opportunities to do community<br />

outreach with church groups, Boy Scouts, Girl Scouts and<br />

school groups in a classroom setting. Training and teaching<br />

tools are provided. Other activities that are planned for 2005<br />

include invasive plant pulling, revegetation projects and help<br />

with watering newly planted areas.<br />

Wilderness Steward Update<br />

www.mazamas.org<br />

This program has been well received by the outdoor community<br />

and the personal rewards are great. Teaching others, especially<br />

young people, how to tread lightly and leave no evidence<br />

of their visit in the wilderness is tremendously satisfying. If you<br />

have wanted to do more backpacking, do some community<br />

service, or just give back to this wonderful mountain in our<br />

backyard, this program is for you. For more information go to<br />

our Web site www.mazamas.org and click on Activities, then<br />

Training dates are Monday, April 25 at the new downtown<br />

BARK Hike to the NE Side of Mt. Hood<br />

Sunday, April 10, at 8:45 a.m. Carpools will leave the Daily Grind<br />

(SE Hawthorne & 40th) promptly at 9 a.m. Please arrive by 8:45 a.m.<br />

so we can check you in, arrange rides and give a brief overview of the<br />

day’s plans.<br />

Enjoy an exploration to one of Mt. Hood’s most popular and threatened<br />

recreation areas on the northeast side of Mt. Hood. The Pollalie<br />

Cooper timber sales, which encompass 865 acres, sit adjacent to the<br />

Tilly Jane roadless area, home of the historic Tilly Jane Trail leading up<br />

to Cooper Spur. On this trip, you’ll explore this diverse transition<br />

ecosystem, learn about the role fire plays in forest ecology and find out<br />

about the community restoration vision for this area—as opposed to<br />

the development vision of Mt. Hood Meadows, and the logging vision<br />

of the US Forest Service. For the hike, bring warm clothing (scarf, hat,<br />

gloves) food, water, rain gear, sturdy water-resistant hiking shoes, sunscreen,<br />

etc., and be prepared to go off trail.<br />

Conservation Committee Outing<br />

Held on March 12, 2005<br />

The Conservation Committee outing to Circle Creek was very successful<br />

and informative. Seven volunteers: Debbie Meisinger, Barry Buchanan,<br />

John Hawthorne, Stefan Hauser, Virginia Keefer, Vik Anantha and Neal<br />

Keefer were treated to a most educational and recreational day. We met<br />

Doug Ray, an enthusiastic and knowledgeable wetlands biologist. Doug<br />

gave us a multi-hour lesson on riparian ecosystems and a taste of the<br />

complexity of the interdependencies of healthy natural forests, the<br />

streams they support and the salmon who populate healthy streams.<br />

Doug is a fun guy with incredible passion for his work. His enthusiasm is<br />

very contagious, and his running dialog was truly educational.<br />

The North Coast Land Conservancy recently bought nearly 400<br />

acres along Circle Creek, which runs along the East side of Tillamook<br />

Head and is a major tributary of the Necanicum River. About 100<br />

years ago the property was cleared of its big spruce trees and turned<br />

into grazing lands. The work we did was to plant native bushes and<br />

trees in a former grazing meadow adjacent to the creek. This work supports<br />

NCLC’s plan to reestablish the original forest and rebuild the<br />

riparian zones along the creek, in an effort to help restore native Coho<br />

Salmon populations. It was very humbling and gratifying to be part of<br />

this restoration.<br />

Our crew was so effective we finished the planting work well ahead<br />

of schedule, so we had time to clean up an old scrap metal and glass<br />

dump site from an otherwise beautiful spruce forest glen, carpeted with<br />

moss, oxalis and skunk cabbage in full bloom.<br />

Our reward for the morning’s work (as if the work was not reward<br />

enough) was a guided tour of the amazing wetlands spruce forest<br />

downstream of our planting site, followed by a very adventurous and<br />

vigorous scramble on Tillamook head. It was a perfect day weather<br />

wise and left us all with a feeling of great satisfaction and accomplishment.<br />

Many thanks to the volunteers!<br />
